Best mobile phone for Meta Quest 3s

I just got a Meta Quest 3s, but my mobile is quite old, so I think I'll need to get a new one. If anybody could recommend the cheapest mobile that would work that'd be great. Also, would a SIM card and phone number be needed for it? I'm happy to get a device without a SIM card if only the internet capability is needed.

You need a smartphone that runs either Android 5.0 or higher, or ios15.1 or higher.  Also with Bluetooth 4.0 or higher and preferably a good WiFi connection.  Up to you to check whatever phone you buy meets these minimum requirements.

i9 13900K water cooled, RTX4090, Z790 MB w/wifi6e, 32Gb 6400 ram, 2x2TB SSD, 1000W PSU, Win 11, QPro, Q3, w/Link and Air Link, Vive Pro1 with 2x2.0 base stations, Etsy lens mod and Index Controllers

I've just bought an Xperia (Android 6), but the Google Playstore says Meta Horizon Mobile won't work on my device.

What model did you actually buy?  If you bought an old used E5 from around 2016 then maybe this is the problem, lol!  I suggest you contact Sony support and see if there is a fix for this.  Good luck mate and cheers.
